EMC Discord Community Meeting 7/11/20: EMC Turning 9!

EMC Discord Community Meeting Scheduled for July 11th, 2020

Meeting Topic: EMC's 9th Birthday Event(s)
Time: 10:00 am EMC time on July 11, 2020
Dress code: Casual/Business Casual

How will it work?

1. Krysyy will lead a discussion
2. Community members will be asked for input, specific and generic, in a discussion-type environment on discord via voice and chat.
3. The discussion notes will then be posted to the community for additional comments for 24 hours, encouraging other time zones' participation.
4. Staff will review the notes and decide/design
   • Consider it an active suggestion box with immediate feedback and interaction from Staff, so it's best to brainstorm some ideas ahead of time

Are there rules?

In order to facilitate a productive meeting environment, the following rules must be followed. Breaking the rules will result in removal from the meeting to benefit the discussion:

• STAY ON TOPIC. Keep the discussion going in the correct direction for the most benefit.
• No talking over each other. Be courteous when other people are trying to talk and do your best not to interrupt.
• If you are asked to be quiet at any time, you are expected to comply or be removed from the meeting. We want to give all attendees a chance to be heard, if they want to be. Therefore, if you've 'had the floor' for too long, we may ask that you take a break and let someone else speak.
• ALL other EMC rules apply: rudeness, appropriateness, etc.

I'm really sorry to have missed this one. Life does call.. I'm interested to see what comes out of these latest chats.
